The Patnode Family
This page is the Patnode side of my family. Fern is my mother and her maiden name is Patnode. All of the relationships to our family will be from my position unless otherwise noted.
These are my Great Great Grandparents Leonard and Julia Patnode. Leonard was born in 1824 and moved from Canada to the US when he was just 9 years old.
I will update this page so check back often.
